We get it. The dog days are almost here and we're looking forward to sunny moments at the beach! Who's with me? Ofc you are—or else, you wouldn't be here :) Anyway...sunny days spent at the beach are unmatched, no doubt. But it can be kinda difficult to figure out what to wear while hanging out in the sand. You'll likely be sporting a swimsuit (for when the ocean ~calls your name~), some cute sandals, and a pair of go-to sunnies—so what else? Do you opt for a basic cover-up or just throw on an old T-shirt and go? The options feel limiting! Before you start digging in your pajamas drawer to find that 10-year-old tee, though, hear us out. There are so many actually cute 'fits you can wear to the beach that'll pair great with your swimwear. (Really!)
Whether you decide to completely cover up your swimsuit or incorporate it into your outfit, beachwear looks are low-key versatile. From adorable dresses and skirts to rompers and matching shorts sets (!), the possibilities for chic beach outfits are much more endless than you'd think. It's time to pack those bags, slip into your fave summer shoes, and embrace the beach. Just don't forget the SPF!
